COLD STEEL TRAINING DAYS VIDEO WITH LYNN THOMPSON AND StickMan aka Keith Beam

[@blachubear]

Woke up, went to my subscription videos & saw Lynn's name. I click on this video immediately. It's so great to see you again Lynn.

[@kongandbasses8732]

Good to see Stick Man doing the Cold Steel routine. And good to see that Lynn Thompson and the other Cold Steel guys are still involved. Big fan from Germany here, and I'll stay a fan - as long as Cold Steel stays Cold Steel.

[@muzzl-rip-4518]

Keith, let me just say i am now confident that Coldsteel has been turned over into good caring hands, i wasnt sure at first, but your gettin boots on the ground and showing you care about preserving Coldsteel's legacy. Thankyou sir

[@naleenperera9902]

Indeed a big thank you Keith ,keep it going.

[@J6789-c9s]

He literally sold it to another major company recently.

[@richardhenry1969]

To me what made coldsteel , coldsteel was that everyone Lynn brought along was into martial arts. Lynn said his best designs came from sparring in the gym. What set coldsteel apart from everyone else was Lynn loving martial arts. A lot of blade makers claim to be martial arts but Lynn went and trained with everyone. Not to mention his stuff is ment to be used. Not like a lot of companies that make fancy blades that really aren’t ment to be used. Coldsteel will always hold a place in my heart and a place in my pocket

[@RobotechII]

Great to see Lynn!

[@permafroost]

Man, your task is not easy. Arrive after Lynn is certainly complicated, and the "fans" are tough, but I think you've been doing really well from the start. Keep going!

[@vencemcadams2927]

What a great opportunity to learn from the best. I sure miss Lynn and the gang, but this gives me hope for Cold Steel moving forward.

[@knack2086]

We need Lynn to at least stay on the yt channel

[@Fardawg]

I need another hour or three of this. And let's see some of that grilling too. "Grilling with Cold Steel" could be a channel in itself.

[@hotrodparker]

AWESOME! Glad to see your ambition, fascination and dedication to learn, preserve and forward the authentic purpose of this company, its blades and their mission. GREAT to see Lynn and the boys !!!

[@danielwasused]

lynn is my spirit animal.

[@RockyMountainBear]

He hunted down my spirit animal, and killed it with his drop-forged Bowie.

[@mikeboone4425]

Really great to see Lynn doing what he loves and the whole gang having a great slice and stab up. Stay safe & happy trails to all.

[@LWRoad]

Any video with Lynn Thompson is an immediate click. I had the pleasure of meeting him in person, spending the better part of a day with him and he is the real deal both on camera and off. I still carry the AK-47 he gave me.

[@Теоретик-с4л]

Very nice Keith! You did a great job. Best video on KZbin this week. I really enjoyed it. Thank you.

[@degenerateWA]

The Arkansas toothpick is absolutely stunning. Pre-ordered one, can't wait to get my hands on it.

[@WeAreUnity.]

Mr. Thompson, Cold Steel, and all the workers are awesome!!!!! Thank y’all!!!

[@Grodd70]

What I have ALWAYS loved about Cold Steel knives is that they have never shied away from calling their knives "Self defense, or martial blades" many manufactures will never even approach the topic. That and they make some BIG ASS folders with strong locks, nobody comes close to size and strength................Thank you Lynn and Cold Steel. I'd also like to see Keith Beam doing some future Cold Steel chopping test :)

[@kylec166]

Awesome to see Lynn Thompson again teaching Keith and all the other guys from cold steel. I love that serated Voyager XL I EDC mine every day have to go buy another one I broke mine last week. I am sad. Man love theses serated there's nothing like them. If I had to have one knife for the rest of my life it would be Voyager and 4 in serated Voyager XL. Awesome knife

[@ajaxracing]

you broke a voyager dang, thats my edc too great blade

[@johnwelch6028]

I absolutely love this video cold steel weapons are not toys they have to be trained with not played with

[@hardusehobby]

I already watched this 2 times. Its cool to see the stickman getting trained by legnedary Lynn Thompson. I like how he is showing how the blades are used and lets Sick train it.

[@Nxtrice]

Lynn at 33:52 is a force to be reckoned with! This video really makes you appreciate technique and balance.

[@slingshotwarrrior8105]

Your a lucky man to be hanging out with Lyn Thompson on his ranch! And learning from him! That is awesome, I ordered the Cold Steel Cheap Shot Crossbow!

[@markclifford143]

How is this not the most viewed knife video on KZbin

[@michaelmetler6315]

Mr. Thompson looking sharp as always! 🖖🖖🖖🖖🖖

[@BBE22OOOWH]

Awesome job Keith!

[@addictedtoblades2]

You guys are freaking awesome and Stickman you're one lucky guy

[@bruutus99]

Hey, this is awesome! Well produced content!

[@rustyknifelover4463]

Damn I have missed the Cold Steel Crew.

[@hdm6897]

This is why I F$%k with the Coldsteel crew , masters at work , they love the trade with sincerity and it shows in their patience , products, demonstrations and love for the craft .Nobody absolutely nobody does it like coldsteel.

[@Nxtrice]

Very informative and a great video. Thanks a lot for putting this together! Much appreciation!

[@MP-oj6zo]

im waiting for my marauder order to arrive in europe and this video is gold for my eyes

[@ingomondorf8209]

Hello from Germany a relly good and infomative video 😎🤟

[@Ve-suvius]

I liked this video. Entertaining. Wish you all the best Keith. You did quite well. But what's with the machete's not in stock? What's going on...

[@lalruatdikavarte7943]

Nice video and very informative and very entertaining and very satisfaction more videos.

[@SLAYER-nm5zw]

Agreed😎

[@jamescacciatore5595]

Respect and regards Mr. Thompson great to see you doing well sir. The training you gave this beginner was top notch

[@coldsteelcollector808]

This was the VERY BEST 53:50 I’ve spent on KZbin in years!!!

[@cmptar]

Glad to see Lynn sticking around!

[@manuelaj3z116]

Lynn had a very good form, and a very stray forward way to teach, and Keith is pretty good at learning new skills, good job guys and please put back in production the Bowie Natchez, that is my dream knife, good vibes from Peru

[@GarrettsGear]

Good vibes all around. God bless Cold Steel and Lynn Thompson.

[@bladeogre8657]

Love this, thanks for sharing. Definitely buying that Drop Forged Bowie Knife after watching this!

[@larryhill1192]

Lynn's excitement and energy really shows and I'm sure transfers over to the products

[@cheaperthanyouthink]

Lynn!!!!!!

[@rickkerans8485]

That looked like a bunch of fun

[@The4cp]

I love seeing Lynn and the Team from Cold Steel. What I love more is you are learning form them and keeping the tradition we have grown to love. Keith you have my respect. Can I get a 4 in Talwar in the line up?

[@b80-s9i]

StickMan is awesome and been doing great with the videos...I'm already tired of people whining about differences between him & Lynn! They're not the same individual y'all... and StickMan clearly understands the brand and is keeping Cold Steel..Cold Steel👍👍👍

[@toddc2788]

Killer video! Thank you

[@HaseltonT]

This is allot of what I want to see. I am a martial artist and I try to have great attention to detail in regards to my Jiu Jitsu. Kung fu. Boxing etc... I look for the same attention in my gear purchases and that’s what I have love about cold steel. More training will mean better products. The only other thing I’d suggest is for him to pursue the martial arts behind these products and in the lives of the customers.

[@johnwelch6028]

apparently we love cold still for the same results

[@cadiastands3308]

Definitely buying the Arkansas Toothpick when it comes out for my SASS outfit.

[@ericsierra-franco7802]

Good job Stickman!

[@jpolhamus71]

Great video stickman !!!!! You never fail as long as u learn from your mistakes!!!

[@DL-ij7tf]

Cold Steel is like the Ruger of knives - always making stuff as good or better as the competition but way more affordably.

[@elihollingsworth6852]

@Noah Vinkel Hansen in some categories and designs you really can't. No one else makes anything like an espada or voyager vaquero

[@elihollingsworth6852]

@Noah Vinkel Hansen I can't stand most of the nerd fanboys hating on cold steel but obsessing over their little spyderco/benchmade/etc. Every company has the one perfect design that they get perfectly right and do better than the competition. I'm not married to cold steel, but the taipan is the best combat dagger ever designed, and the espada and voyager are the best large folders ever designed. No competition.

[@elihollingsworth6852]

@Noah Vinkel Hansen big blades designed for killing is where cold steel excels- just ordered a San Mai magnum tanto xii and I'm already thrilled

[@davidstundner4312]

Lynn 👍🏻🤩 Nice to see you again. You are the face of cold steel and you will always be. Greetings from Austria

[@АлексейЧистяков-ч4б]

Мы тут раді бачити містера Томпсона у здравії та з ножем!! Енітайм Енівеа!))

[@timb8970]

Lynn is a national treasure. I wish we had more men like him in business.

[@Michael-fn5ni]

This is awesome. Thank you!

[@WTFBazda]

Stickman is an ironic nickname since he swings a sword like a lumberjack! Let the blade do the cutting, stickman! Great video! Lots of useful information!

[@Ice7TeaBottled]

I am so stoked about that Arkansas Toothpick. Greetings from Germany

[@Tearithin77]

Great practical wisdom

[@JohnDoe-vm3lv]

Just got my Brooklyn Smasher. It’s a beast 👍🏽

[@juanbautistaalfaro3156]

Hola, estoy muy apenado que un representante de la gran marca cold steel, el modelo Point tanto , borde liso en xl ya está descontinuado. Y solo la hubiese tenido para tenerla en mi hogar. Ya que por mi edad y condición física, no la podría disfrutar del campo para cortar ramas, maderos. Es un Clásico y como tal no pasan de moda. Y muy seguras . Espero que algún día la vuelvan a fabricar. Muchas gracias.

[@ThomasfromDenmark1]

Great video, friendly attitudes. Looks like a lot of fun, I would love to try it.

[@Bfr3shBrian]

Great seeing Lynn again

[@chrisirick4317]

Good to see Lynn. Stickman Cold Steel Recon 1XL .....

[@WTFBazda]

I love my Marauder so much! That knife puts a smile on my face more than any other. For the price you'll never beat that bowie!

[@thedot4638]

This is such a great training video!

[@ramonvelasquez8431]

Curious thing is that even though it seems easy, swinging a sword or a large knife too hard may hurt your back if done wrong. It is necessary to have at least a minimum degree of understanding of the motion and practice, in order to do it hard and not get messed up.

[@randallpetroelje3913]

I have a cold steel folder and a srk. Awesome blades. I will swear by them. Superior products. Thanks

[@naleenperera9902]

So pleased to see an XL Espada being used ,please keep it going .For me CS and Xl Espada is same.

[@jacoblamb7596]

Stickman, we love ya. You are a great fella and have done great things! Just gotta get those new knives in stock! The haters will hate but change is good sometimes.

[@josephmac2386]

I was pleasantly surprised to see Lynn Thompson again I wish him well God bless him

[@igoryurkin9038]

Awesome!!!

[@EDCandLace]

Lynn is a complete badass, but seriously could you imagine him at a slim trim fit 190-200lbs? The man would literally be a force of nature.

[@asintonic]

Omg The Knife Gawd IS BACK MR. LYNN! Thanks for the video guys. Those CS Katanas are really no were to be found? Ebay or Amazon. Will those swords be collectors items?

[@shaeddar1]

hy, nice knives hope we get a dropfoged tanto also in the size of the srk

[@jorgefernandez6407]

I gotta say, that throat slash on that tuff pig hide with the toothpick, impressed the HELL outta me! So much so that I ordered one...

[@deionbeeldenstormer7498]

Now I'm craving tacos al pastor y pozole!!! :)

[@mr.t9396]

I'm still not digging the "stickman" gimmick and wish the guy would just go by his normal name but I'am glad to see him taking the initiative to learn from the old CS crew some actual cutting technique. Always great to see Lynn still involved & at least "stickman" is trying to connect with the old Cold Steel market.

[@najidraf1979]

Is stickman is a new guy? Sorry I'm still new with Cold Steel.

[@mr.t9396]

@@najidraf1979 hes the new spokesman for Cold Steel. Lynn recently sold Cold Steel to GSM outdoors.

[@najidraf1979]

@@mr.t9396 Oh no... thanks for the information sir.

[@raymondknight5298]

Keith is Awesome too.

[@gavinfitton6111]

Thanks for the video, really good! I love cold steel!! Will the new blades hold value over time like the Japanese made ones? I love collecting them and have a few but never managed to get the VG10 Natchez Bowie but have the Laredo!

[@MP-oj6zo]

How about marauder bowie with better steel and black bear classic handle

[@kevin6030]

when Lynn was showing the Arkansas toothpick and said you were better to resort to Cold Steel my wee wee jumped a little. LONG LIVE COLD STEEL

[@krispybeats6615]

watched the bullet movie the other day (tupac & mickey rourke) ... cold steel catalogue is in there :D

[@rnkmode1876]

This definitely appeals to my Martial Arts side, I never learned Kendo but I did take Kung Fu & Kickboxing for years, learned some Kali too! back before MMA hit in North America. Very cool video. 🙏🥋🗡💥

[@GorggW]

Yo, y'all should make a Damascus Espada XL

[@CHUNKYNUGGET666]

Let’s see Lynn’s collection! That would make a cool video

[@SurvivalSpec]

HE IS BACK!!!!

[@mathewrculbertson]

Great video! Stick man has some arms on him!

[@gejo6285]

i think we all feel better now.

[@X8X8X6X4X]

Please make a Black Talon 2 XL. PLEASE I NEEEEEED IIIIIT.

[@bawidamann939]

Yeah me too

[@edgardarndt1481]

Coldsteel forever 😎💪👍👍👍👍

[@12345678927164]

Very cool!

[@lumpylumpy3931]

How many lives has this man’s knives has saved

[@wastelandwarrior9738]

I’ve trained and worked for him for years. So believe me when I say he would get bags of letters saying a certain knife saved their lives. It was totally unbelievable. He takes great pride in that as he should. A great guy and American

[@Fardawg]

0:32 I hope we get to see that training footage with Ron Balicki soon.

[@DarkMkn]

Buen video crack 😎🤑

[@OmarM8055]

Big Sergio wearing that BAMBOO Hat !! Doing some QA on that sword that hit the ground

[@stefanklaus1652]

I miss lynn so much ❤️

[@Gieszkanne]

I have seen a cut test with a very sharp saber but the meat was wrapped in one layer of denim. He tried 3 strokes but they all bounced off. You can cut denim normally with no problem but this combination of soft flexible underground (meat) seems to make it difficult. I tried it with denim and foam as underground. In another video he showed that you can cut bare meat even with a quite dull knife.

[@jackhenry290]

Keep up the testing and I’ll keep on buying.

[@kevin6030]

you got it stick man just don't let us down and keep giving us good knives weapons tools whatever you'd like to call them just make sure they're there for my son and his son. please

[@RooRguy27]

I like how we get the whole day of footage. I might be able to get on this type of video 👀👀

[@HalloweenStalker666]

I have the SRK series (4/5) missing the AUS 8 model. I like their Melee weapons. The entire Brooklyn Bat series (all 7 plus a 2nd 2020 Banshee). The (Balicki) Escrima sticks/ trainer sticks. Polypropylene Jo staff and Suburito. I even like their Safe Maker I & II. But Ive had Marauder and others like it.. some boot style knives. Idk. Cold Steel is.. you get what you pay for. And you can get a lot. But when it comes to High end steel and hand made Knives (TRC). But most ppl cant afford $500 per knife. Im not even a fan of Benchmade anymore. I do like Fallkniven (also pricey). Overall though. Cold Steel has survived many of my Collection Purges. And Im clearly still buying their products. Just bought the entire Bat Series from Midway USA.
